So Sri Lanka are back in the series with their first win after a fine display with the bat on this rain-truncated day. But take nothing away from India's batsmen who did well with their 29 overs only to see the game reduced to 21 and Sri Lanka smooth home, thanks to a great knock from Jayasuriya and then Dilshan.
